Looking for a two-seater design

Just looked at Toxo website a little more carefully and I feel some
suspicious. They quote "maximum 230mph, stall at 40mph with Jabiru 3300
120hp" And there's no weight information at the website. Maximum and
stall speeds ratio almost 6:1? Tooooo good to be true.


If the airplane stalls at 40 mph, then it stalls at 80 mph at 4 G's. This
same airplane would stall at 16 G's at 160 mph. 230? Get real, small gusts
alone would kill you at that speed. One or the other (or more likely both)
of those numbers is pure fiction. To paraphrase an old saw: "There are
lies, damned lies, and specifications for homebuilts".
